Introduction to Crochet Summer Tops

These crochet summer top patterns are perfect to wear when the weather is warm, whether at the beach, a picnic, a music festival, or any other time you like.

When you think of crochet, items like granny square blankets and winter hats might first come to mind, but the truth is there are crochet projects you can make and use all year long.

Best of all, when you make something for yourself you know it’s going to fit just right so you will look and feel great. Read on for some of our favorite crochet top patterns and tips for making your top the best for you!

Can We Wear Crochet Tops in Summer?

Of course we can, and we’re on a mission to prove it! Crochet wearables might seem too stuffy for a hot summer day, but it all comes down to the type of yarn and pattern you’re working with!

For example, crochet halter tops and bikini tops are two must-haves during summer days, especially if you’re planning to go to a music festival or the beach!

For those of us who want a bit more coverage, summer tees and tanks are always going to be stylish and on-trend. When it comes to crocheted pieces, ladies of all ages have something to make and wear for the summer season!

How to Correctly Measure and Size a Crochet Top

Making a crochet top is one of the easiest ways for you to own a garment that’s customized to your exact size. It’s important to know how to correctly measure and choose a size for your piece if you want to wear a top that’ll make you feel beautiful, confident, and comfortable all summer long!

You’re already putting in all the work for each of those stitches, so make them count!

How to Determine Your Chest Measurement

The most important measurement for crocheting garments is the chest measurement. It’s relatively easy to adjust length or make the armholes deeper or narrower as needed, but if you don’t start with a pattern that fits in the chest, your top won’t fit properly.

To get your chest measurement, measure around the widest part of your bust/chest. Make sure the measuring tape is parallel to the ground and is snug around your body, but not tight.

You will also want to measure the desired length for your top on your body if you want a cropped top or something with more coverage.

Choosing Your Pattern Size

Most crochet patterns will adhere to the standards for garment sizing set out by the Craft Yarn Council, which are as follows:

SIZE XS SMALL MEDIUM LARGE XL
Chest in inches 28-30 32-34 36-38 40-42 44-46
Chest in cm 71–76 81–86 91.5–96.5 101.5–106.5 111.5–117

If you have a pattern in mind, check to see if it has a recommended ease listed. That’s how much bigger or smaller than your actual body measurement the garment should be. Then look for the size that gets you closest to that measurement and follow those instructions.

Garment Size Calculator for Crocheters

If you want to make your own summer tops, you can use a garment size calculator like this one from Joy of Motion Crochet to help you with the math.

To use this calculator you’ll need to know your gauge in the pattern stitch you want to use, with the yarn and hook you plan to work with, as well as the fit you want (how much ease).

Once you’ve entered your numbers the site will give you suggestions for the number of stitches in sizes XS-5XL for the bust, waist, armhole, etc. If you want to design your own tank or tee in a particular stitch pattern, this will help you know the number of stitches you need.

Want to experiment with new stitches for all the tops you plan on making? Check out the Ultimate Crochet Stitch Library, where you can learn 45 different stitches you can work into tops or any other project you want.

Supplies You’ll Need for Crochet Tops

What’s the Best Yarn for Summer Tops?

There are three things to consider when crocheting wearables for summer: yarn weight, material, and washability.

Lighter weight yarns are best for summer garments. Something in the bulky or super bulky range would be too warm for the weather. Most of the crochet summer tops we share are in the range of (2) Sport to (4) Worsted.

If you’re looking for a good worsted weight yarn, you can never go wrong with 24/7 Cotton from Lion Brand. It comes in a wide selection of colors and are made with 100% mercerized cotton.

Lion Brand Coboo is a great DK weight option because it uses a blend of cotton and bamboo that creates a breathable fabric that also drapes beautifully!

Sport weight yarns are best suited for lighter projects with great textures. If you want to make vibrant tees and delicate cover-ups, then Knit Picks’ Brava Sport could be the one for you! It’s got great washability and the acrylic material stands up to the test of time (and your washing cycle)!

If you want to stitch with yarns made from natural fibers, then the  LB Collection Bamboo Linen Yarn is another great sport weight option that uses not one, but three natural fibers!

Light weight acrylic yarns can also be a nice choice for summer crocheting, but they aren’t as breathable as natural fibers so they can feel a little warmer.

The good news is, if you’re stitching from a pattern, it will tell you what kind of yarn (weight as well as brand/variety) was used so you can choose to use the same yarn if it is still in production or you can choose a yarn of the same weight and fiber content to ensure a similar result.

Crochet Hooks for Summer Tops

Having a full set of different hook sizes is a sure way to always be ready for any project that you might come across.

Clover’s Armour Crochet Hook Set is a great choice if you’re looking for a full set. They are ergonomic and brightly colored so you can easily tell which size you’re using.

Notions and Tools Needed

Once you’ve got your yarn and hook, you also need to consider other tools you’ll be using while crocheting your tops. Some of the most common essential notions and tools are listed below:

These are all must-haves for any crochet project so they’re always handy to have around!

Blocking Tools

To make your crochet summer top the best it can be, you may also want to block your project when it is finished. Blocking relaxes the stitches and smooths everything out, and it gives you a chance to slightly alter the shape of your garment.

The essentials for blocking include T-pins or straight pins to hold your fabric in place when you’re using wet or spray blocking (knit blockers are also a fun tool but not essential), some kind of blocking mat, wool wash, or a mild detergent for washing your garment, and a spray bottle for spray blocking or an iron or garment steamer for steam blocking.
